Detailed Description
"TARGET 2.0": Safety and Performance of the Cardiovalve Tricuspid valve replacement system in the treatment of subjects with tricuspid regurgitation- investigation: Cardiovalve Tricuspid Valve Replace...
Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria:
-
Subject is ≥ 18 and <85 years
-
Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) ≥3+ based upon echocardiography, as assessed by independent core laboratory using a 5-grade classification (mild (1), moderate (2), severe (3), massive (4), torrential (5)). Trace and no TR is considered 0)29
-
Symptomatic, NYHA Class II-IV
-
Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) ≥ 30%
-
Subject adequately treated based upon medical standards
-
Subjects are at high risk for open heart surgery
-
Subject provided written, informed consent before investigation enrollment
-
Subject approved by the Subject Screening Committee
Anatomical Inclusion Criteria (measured by CT)
-
Right femoral vein diameter > 9mm
-
Tricuspid valve diameter < 55 mm
-
RV length > 45 mm
Exclusion Criteria:
Subjects will be excluded from the investigation if fulfill any of the following criteria:
- Cardiac anatomy deemed not suitable for the Cardiovalve TR system as evaluated (by CT)
- Venous peripheral anatomy or any spinal anatomy that is unsuitable for Cardiovalve TR implant delivery (by CT)
- Primary tricuspid disease that may interfere with Cardiovalve implantation
- Severe right ventricular failure (by Echo core lab adjudication)
- Significant coronary artery disease requiring percutaneous or surgical intervention
- Severe systolic pulmonary arterial pressure, pASP > 2/3 systemic BP with PVR > 5 Wood units after vasodilator challenge
- Presence of any known life threatening non-cardiac disease that will limit the subject's life expectancy to less than one year
- Cerebrovascular event (stroke, TIA) within the past 3 months
- Active endocarditis or history of mitral/tricuspid endocarditis within 3 months or infection requiring antibiotic within 2 weeks before index procedure
- Subject has significant other sided valvular heart disease which requires treatment (e.g. mitral regurgitation or stenosis, or aortic regurgitation or stenosis)
- Documented primary coagulopathy or platelet disorder, including thrombocytopenia (absolute platelet count <90k)
- Documented evidence of significant renal dysfunction (eGFR<30 ml/min/1.73m2) or any form of dialysis at time of screening within 30 days
- Untreatable hypersensitivity or contraindication to any of the following: all antiplatelets, all anticoagulants, nitinol alloys (nickel and titanium), bovine tissue, glutaraldehyde, contrast media, or Polyethylene Glycol (PEG)
- Subjects unsuitable for implantation due to thrombosis of the lower venous system or presence of a vena cava filter
- Evidence of an acute myocardial infarction (AMI) ≤ 1 month (30 days)
- Liver cirrhosis > Child-Pugh Class A
- Psychiatric or behavioral disease including known alcohol or drug abuser that is likely to impair compliance with protocol
- Pregnant, lactating or planning pregnancy within next 12 months
- Requirement for antibiotic treatment within the last 48 hours
- Surgical or interventional procedure planned within 30 days prior to index procedure
- Refractory heart failure requiring advanced intervention (i.e. left ventricular assist device, transplantation) or UNOS Status 1 heart transplant or prior orthotropic heart transplantation.
- Prior Tricuspid valve surgery or transcatheter tricuspid valve procedure that may interfere with the Cardiovalve device. Valve in a valve procedure is excluded.
- Modified Rankin Scale > 4 disability
- Implant or revision of any rhythm management device (CRT or CRT-D) or implantable cardioverter-defibrillator within 30 days prior to index procedure
- Acutely decompensated heart failure (i.e. hemodynamically unstable or requiring IV inotrope) at the time of screening
- Severe COPD or continuous use of home oxygen
- Hgb < 9 g/dL at screening
- The subject has contraindication against a transesophageal echo (TEE) during the procedure that cannot be replaced by other imaging.
- Currently participating in an investigational drug or another device investigation which has not reached its primary endpoint
- Subjects with >2 leads or with any lead that may interfere with Cardiovalve procedure or device
